Chapter 314
Li Mu thought for a moment and said, "Emperor, I think the Qin Dynasty is full of talents, and they are all talents who stand alone. But I think it is better to go to the crown prince.
If I hadn't expected it wrong, this was the largest last battle of the Qin Dynasty. The future of the prince and the Qin Dynasty will make the crown prince lead the army of great benefits to the future of the Qin Dynasty."
Qin Shihuang stood up, bowed to Li Mu, and said, "General Li, I thank you again! This time, I am not thanking you as an emperor, but as a father! You gave such a great opportunity to Fusu, the general is the hero of my great Qin! He is Fusu's benefactor!"
This battle will be the first large-scale foreign military use in Chinese history. It is of great significance. Any general dreams of getting an opportunity, but Li Mu gave it to Fusu. No matter how good his intentions are, it is not an exaggeration to praise him.
Li Mu hurriedly knelt down and said, "The emperor has a heavy word, this is his duty to be a minister."
Qin Shihuang said: "Fusu, please ask General Li to get up quickly." The reason why he did not help each other in person was to ask Fusu to thank him.
Fusu responded and walked up to help Li Mu up, thanked him: "General Li's virtue of fulfilling his achievements, Fusu dared not forget it, but Fusu was young and knowledgeable, and had not led the army yet, so he might disappoint the general."
Li Mu said with confidence: "The prince is smart and has a deep understanding of military affairs. Li Mu is beyond the reach of the world. But the prince has no experience in commanding the army to fight, so it doesn't matter. I believe the prince will do a good job.
I believe that after this battle, the Qin Dynasty will not only have an additional general who can fight well, but also an emperor who is both civil and military. In that case, I will be in peace in the underworld."
"Thank you General, Fusu must work hard!" Fusu thanked him.
Qin Shihuang nodded and said, "Since this is the case, I will allow the general to ask, and the prince will take over you to the expedition." He walked to the map.
He pointed to the map and said, "I want to divide the troops into two groups. The left-road army was led by Han Xin, set out from the Hetao area, attacked the Shanyu royal court, annihilated the main force of the Wangting Xiongnu, and took down the Shanyu royal court. The right-road army was led by Fusu, set out from the former Donghu area, and headed north.
Go straight to Langjuxu Mountain, destroy the Huns' army, and take down Langjuxu Mountain."
"Okay, okay!" A cheer sounded.
Wei Liao said excitedly: "Emperor, Liaozi thinks that the Huns are doomed to do anything with such troops!"
Zhou Chong reminded: "Emperor, it is not difficult to defeat the Huns in this battle. The difficulty lies in how to govern the Huns."
Qin Shihuang was very interested and said, "Mr. Zhou, do you have a clever plan?"
Zhou Chong smiled and said, "The emperor is so serious. He has no clever plan, but there is one thing to do. Zhou Chong was thinking that the Huns are different from other ethnic groups. They are fierce and good at fighting, and are deep in the northern desert.
Even if the Huns were defeated, the Qin Dynasty was a little out of reach, so Zhou Chong thought that the strategy of using barbarians to control barbarians could be adopted."
"It's good to use barbarians to control barbarians!" Qin Shihuang's interest became even stronger. He said: "Mr. Zhou, let's be more specific."
Zhou Chong continued: "First, adopt the strategy of differentiation and disintegration. For those Hu people who surrender to the Qin Dynasty, they should treat each other with kindness, so that the Hu people know that as long as they do not oppose the Qin Dynasty, they will live a good life. For those who oppose the Qin Dynasty, they will resolutely crack down on them.
”
Qin Shihuang praised: "Good and powerful together, good means. Maodun asked me to build a tomb for his wife. I can make good use of this. Li Si, if you write your article well, just write an epitaph."
Li Si took the order and said, "Abide by the order."
Qin Shihuang continued: "I wrote this monument myself and sent skilled craftsmen to repair it. I could even hold a ceremony to call all the Hu people in Xianyang and let them witness with their own eyes how the Qin Dynasty treated the Hu people well."
Fusu smiled and said, "Father, my son's minister is bold and guessing. Maodun will definitely be grateful in the future."
Qin Shihuang nodded. He said, "The truth is this truth. It's just that he is grateful, but he will not surrender the Qin Dynasty. This battle is inevitable. What I did is not to make Maodun grateful, but to let the Hu people know that the Qin Dynasty treats them well."
"The emperor is wise!" Han Fei stuttered: "The Hu people will definitely lead to a good story, and they have much less hostility towards the Qin Dynasty."
Qin Shihuang smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou, please speak."
Zhou Chong responded and said, "The second way is to move the Huns inward and let them move to the vicinity of the border. Then divide the Huns into several parts and leave them a small number of troops."
Fusu smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou, you are so sinister. The Huns were divided into several parts, and they were not affiliated with each other, they could not form a rope, and their strength could not be concentrated, so they had to listen to the Qin Dynasty."
Qin Shihuang praised: "This method is good, just do it like this. Not only can the Huns deal with this, but other Hu people can also do this."
After the Western Han Dynasty defeated the Huns, the Huns moved inwardly. After a few years, they integrated into the Chinese society and became a member of the China. The Hun nobles gave the surname Liu, and a large part of the Liu surname is descended from the Huns.
Everyone has no objection to this method.
Qin Shihuang looked at Li Si and said after a while: "Li Si, you have been following me for a long time?"
Li Si replied: "When you return to the emperor, I am respectful to you in the prosperous era and have the honor to follow the emperor."
Qin Shihuang smiled and said, "You are a minor official in Shangcai. You are unwilling to die of old age among the people. Then you became Xunzi as your teacher to learn the art of emperors. After you finished your studies, you looked around the world and thought that only the Qin Dynasty could unify the country. Then you went to Xianyang and served me.
After following me over the years, fighting south and north, fighting east and west, suffering a lot, and finally completing the great cause and unifying the country. Then, I let you become the prime minister. Over the years, you have done your best to make your own contribution to the stability of the Qin Dynasty."
Li Si didn't know what Qin Shihuang was trying to do, and said, "I dare not worry about the emperor if I make a little contribution."
Qin Shihuang continued: "It is not easy for you to be a minor official to become a prime minister, and you can be called a legend. You are old, just like me, with gorgeous hair on your temples and tired, so you can rest."
The implication is very clear, and it is to ask Li Si to retire and become a political leader, which means to stop his appearance. Although Li Si was unwilling, the words had reached this point and had to take the initiative to propose it, saying: "I am lucky to follow the emperor.
I am old, tired, and exhausted. I ask the emperor to forgive me for my retirement and political affairs.”
Qin Shihuang was very satisfied with Li Si's cooperation and said, "Well, it's hard for you over the years. I will give you ten thousand taels of gold, a beautiful house, and a thousand acres of fertile land. Let's take a good rest."
Li Si thanked him, "Thank you, the emperor."
Qin Shihuang looked at Xiao He and said, "Xiao He, from now on, you will take over Li Si's government affairs. Cao Shen and Chen Ping assisted."
Three people received the order.
Looking at Qin Shihuang with gorgeous hair, Zhou Chong understood very well that he had not had much time left. Qin Shihuang was arranging his funeral. He wanted to push people who were useful to Fusu and trusted to an important position, and he had very good intentions.
